Has anyone been targeting the latest Smart campaign?

When does RHB credit the special "bonus" rates? Is it on the 15th of the month, or sometime later?

For some reason, I am not seeing the bonus for the Joy@Work. Anyone faces simialr issue?

I can't see in details.

What's included in the 20th credit. Do you know what you qualified for and does it tally?

I have no idea what is "retail deposits".

under clause 18, but i think i do update email address, but, didnt receive notification...

Eligible Participant(s) will receive notification updates via email on the Bonus Rates fulfilled on
a monthly basis. If the Eligible Participant(s) did not provide RHB their email address details
when the CASA/-i was opened previously, they will not receive any notification updates.
However, Eligible Participant(s) can submit or update their email address by submitting the
request via Secured Message in RHB Online Banking or walk in to the nearest RHB Branch.

In the past, I was get the monthly email for previous Smart campaign.

Just received my lump sum bonus today together with my credit card cashback

[attachmentid=11512762]

Yes same, I got total 1.5% today.

1.0% for Joy@Work
0.5% for Spend
1.0% for Save
0.05% base rate

Total 2.55%

Will go for the Pay bonus at >RM10k tier this month. Should be able to then get 4.05%, which is a pretty good rate.

Anybody knows if we can get BOTH bonus interest and loyalty points, or only qualify for one of them? If you can only pick one...how/where to do so?

From the T&C (Clause 1.28):

There are 2 options available to earn from the RHB Smart Account:
a. Bonus Interest Rates or
b. Loyalty Points

Very nice new interface that transparently shows your bonus rewards. You can make the choice between earning higher interest rate or loyalty points here. Only accesible via online banking.

if you alway have .100k deposit, you may exchange RM3000 to USD each month, you will get extra 1.6% each month (rm131.50), then exchange it back, it lose rm20 only. am i correct? if you dont exchang it back you can plan foreign weelky term deposit got high interest too 4%/annual. (min placement usd2k)
of course lah it have some risk on currency up n down

yes, just use finger scroll n click. RHB rejected me few times for shell CC, then i become premier to apply for their Shell CC. then they offer me for this multicurrency account, and it is good i can pre exchange my currency n use it at oversea without the converison fee. for the fees i guess is just annual debit card fees.
*
Can you convert in and out on the same day?

Also, there is obviously a conversion fee, which is the bid-ask spread.

Typical credit card conversion fee for foreign currency transactions do not have a bid-ask spread, but instead a 1% or 2% fee based on the actual exchange rate.
